Nominations are now being accepted through the month of June for the Brown County Outstanding Senior Citizen Recognition for 2014.

Seniors who have reached the age of 70 by June 1 of this year can be nominated. Recognition will be based largely and how the nominee has touched the lives of other people in their community, the scope of volunteer involvement in various community organizations, as well as the variety, quality and quantity of community service performed after age 65. Nominees must currently do a volunteer activity that is unpaid and demonstrates commitment to their local community.

Nominees will be recognized for their community service at the Brown County Fair in August. Those wishing to make nominations can obtain official nomination forms by contacting their local Senior Citizen group or Bob Apitz at Brown County Family Service, PO Box 788, New Ulm, MN 56073.
